The Most Complete NYCC 2017 Party Guide + Events List

[Updated on October 2nd, 2017]

[UPDATED ON 10/2/17 – CHECK THURS, FRI, SAT, SUN]

Going to New York Comic Con this year? I am and I’m a bit of a party nerd so I was looking for the NYCC nightlife, but there really wasn’t any lists of NYCC 2017 parties or night time events so I decided to compile my own comprehensive list. I tried to find every afterparty, concert, speaker event, performance, and etc happening during NYCC, so enjoy this NYCC 2017 party guide. It took me a lot of browsing through Facebook, Reddit, Eventbrite, Timeout, Bleeding Cool, and the official NYCC site to put it all together.

It’s organized by day with relevant information about each event, prices, descriptions from the promoters, and my own comments about it.

The Fourth Annual Doctor Who Costume and Trivia Contest

If you’ll be in NYC on Wednesday night and wanna test your Dr. Who knowledge at a Dr. Who bar, why not?

Jelly babies anyone? Now in its fourth year at The Way Station in Brooklyn (the NYC area’s first and best Doctor Who-themed bar), the Doctor Who Costume/Trivia Contest is a celebration of all eras of Who. Hosted by Chris Cummins (Den of Geek, Music Video Book Club, Sci-Fi Explosion) and featuring a universe of prizes and special guests, this event features a contest in which audience members battle it out to see who has the greatest Who trivia knowledge. Then, the costume contest portion of the evening puts your cosplay skills to the test, to see who is the best dressed Doctor, Companion, and Alien from the series. From cosmic fashions to crazy fun trivia questions fit for a Timelord, this one has it all!

What Were They Thinking? The Worst Music Videos of the ’80s Explained

It’s cheap and it’s 80’s. Who doesn’t love music from the era of hair metal, Prince, and Michael Jackson? Event is at an independent 50 seat cinema offering full bar service.

In the first decade of MTV, bands sometimes delivered amazing music videos, full of breathtaking visuals and incredible creativity. And sometimes they did not. Not even close. From spectacularly bad choices to some real head-scratching concepts, some 80s music videos were so terrible that they graduate to a level where we must ask, “What were they thinking?” With information straight from interviews with the artists and video directors themselves, Music Video Time Machine’s resident video expert Stephen Pitalo will explain how inexplicable clips by Journey, Diana Ross, and the Jacksons (among others), made it to the small screen.

Conicon 4.0

An art gallery party hosted by the Con Artist Collective, a group of emerging artists. I’m assuming it’ll be comic themed, but your guess is as good as mine.

It’s that time of the year again, so grab your cape and colorful spandex and come to the Conicon 4.0 group show. Conicon is a show inspired by comics and the annual NYC Comic-Con convention. The show is a couple of days before the convention, so you’ll have time to geek out at both!

Star Wars: Return of the Jedi – In Concert

New York Philharmonic 10 Lincoln Center, David Geffen Hall, New York, NY 10023

If you’re looking for a fancy night out while watching Star Wars, here’s a renowned orchestra performing the Return of the Jedi score live as you watch the movie. Concerts playing on Wednesday and Thursday.

Luke Skywalker heads a mission to rescue Han Solo from the clutches of Jabba the Hutt, and faces Darth Vader one last time. Experience Return of the Jedi in this World Premiere event featuring the New York Philharmonic performing John Williams’s iconic score live as the complete film is screened.

TreeHaus Illustrators AfterParty

It’s at a fancy food market (expect wine and cheese) and you’ll be hanging out with artists/creatives/performers over live music and art exhibitions. Tickets benefit a depression nonprofit, Freedom Ladder.

HRTS Associates NY Presents: 2017 Comic Con Mixer

Keeping in the vein of me having to look up acronyms, the Hollywood Radio and Television Society Associates of New York are throwing a little mixer event for NYCC. Going by the group’s description, there’ll probably be networking/schmoozing as a backdrop to the socializing so you might want to bring some business cards.

Join us for a social event during this year’s Comic Con! Costumes and friends are welcome! We hope to see you there.

WWE x IGN eSports Showdown

Watch wrestlers not-wrestle each other and instead lay the smack down in some fighting games. Sounds like an entertaining time.

*Sold out at publication time, you might have to try begging a ticket off someone in line

Beginning at 7pm EST, gaming and wrestling fans alike will gather at The Garage, located just blocks from New York Comic-Con, to witness WWE Superstars virtually battle against one another in one of today’s biggest fighting games!

The Showdown’s General Manager is no other than New Day’s Xavier Woods, host of WWE’s Up Up Down Down podcast and one-third of the reigning WWE Tag Team Champions. Along side Woods will be IGN’s very own Max Scoville, former IGN’er Greg Miller and “Golden Boy” Alex Mendez.

WWE Superstars set to attend are A.J. Styles, Sasha Banks, Cesaro, New Day’s Kofi Kingston, as well as a surprise or two!

Doors open at 6pm EST, so please arrive early and remember that a free ticket through Eventbrite is required for entrance. New York Comic-Con badges however are not.

Nerf Herder

A geek rock and punk concert? Sounds like an interesting night with the band that did the Buffy theme.

Pioneers of the late 90’s Pop-Punk and Geek Rock movements, Nerf Herder are perhaps best known for their powerful theme to the iconic Joss Whedon TV show, Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Last year the band released its newest full length “Rockingham” and now is returning to the Northeast for the first time in 15 years. Not to be missed!

Star Wars: Return of the Jedi – In Concert

If you’re looking for a fancy night out while watching Star Wars, here’s a renowned orchestra performing the Return of the Jedi score live as you watch the movie. Concerts playing on Wednesday and Thursday.

Luke Skywalker heads a mission to rescue Han Solo from the clutches of Jabba the Hutt, and faces Darth Vader one last time. Experience Return of the Jedi in this World Premiere event featuring the New York Philharmonic performing John Williams’s iconic score live as the complete film is screened.

Star Trek: The Next 50 Years

More for a quiet, intimate evening discussing the future of Star Trek. The event takes place in a stylish art studio and gallery. All ages event so bring the family.

Join Mark A. Altman (Free Enterprise, The Librarians) and Edward Gross (Geek Magazine), the authors of the critically acclaimed bestselling two volume series from St. Martin’s Press, The Fifty-Year Mission, along with Access Hollywood’s Scott Mantz, the Mount Rushmore of Treksperts, as they look back at five decades of Star Trek and speculate on where the franchise will boldly go over the next 50 years including the latest news from the set of Star Trek Discovery, the future of the movie franchise as well as why we need Trek today more than ever. From the book Kirkus Reviews hailed as “an absolute must for any Star Trek fan” and Booklist called “breathtaking in scope and depth.” Expect incredible stories, insight and possibly even a surprise guest or two.

Uptown Showdown: Flying vs. Invisibility

If you’re up for a night with 2 comedians debating superpowers then this should be right up your alley. Sounds like a mix of comedy show, improv, and audience discussion.

Which superpower would you choose? Come on, you know you’ve thought about it. On the one hand, imagine how much money you’d save if you could fly for free. On the other, if you’re invisible, you could sneak into movies without having to pay. No doubt every superhero grapples with just such questions. Lucky for us, we have two teams of very opinionated comedians, including Janeane Garofalo (Wet Hot American Summer), Myq Kaplan (Last Comic Standing finalist), Joel Kim Booster (Conan), Akilah Hughes (It’s Akilah, Obviously!), Michael Ian Black (Wet Hot American Summer), and Dana Gould (The Simpsons), who will make the definitive case for whether it’s better to fly too close to the sun, or hide in plain sight.

You never know what to expect at this bi-monthly, wacky debate series that brings together two teams of comedians, writers and performers to argue a chosen topic, such as which pet is superior cats or dogs and is it better to be comfortable or fashionable? Debaters will argue these lingering questions, drawing from historical fact and personal-opinion in equal measure, and with plenty of silliness and audience participation. Forget about school reform and health care, these issues, heatedly argued by some of the funniest, smartest, intensely wacky creative thinkers around, are the topics that keep us awake at night….in a good way. Winner decided by the audience. Hosted by Matthew Love.

Shipwreck: Jurassic Park

Hmm, a live fan fiction competition and reading performance? This could either be really bad or just slightly horrible. Anyway, it might be fun to hear some weird Jurassic Park fanfics read aloud.

Shipwreck, the San Francisco-based literary erotic fan-fiction competition, returns to New York Comic Con on Thursday, October 5.This time, we’ll take on noted theme park-enthusiast and climate change denier Michael Crichton’s seminal work on Dinosaurology, Jurassic Park. Six Great Writers take on six characters from the source material (meaning the book, with apologies to Jeff Goldblum’s abs) and write fanfic that is either salacious, horrific, hilarious, or, hopefully, some combination of the three. All the fics are read aloud to you by our Thespian-In-Residence before the writers are unmasked. You choose the your favorite fic, and the writer is cast off from polite society. Featured writers: Erin Gloria Ryan, Rakesh Satyal, Alana Massey, and last year’s champs Ariana Rebolini & Katie Heaney. All fic read by Dylan Marron (TruTV, Welcome to Night Vale).

Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Two Decades With Feeling – A 20th Anniversary Celebration

I think I’ve seen this event running at SDCC too. If you’re a big Buffy fan, you’ll likely enjoy this discussion night. Sounds like there’ll be singing and prizes too.

Join the authors of Tor Books’ Slayers & Vampires, the definitive new oral history of Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Angel, Edward Gross & Mark A. Altman (co-authors of The Fifty-Year Mission), as they re-open the Hellmouth and look back at the secret history of the slayer who saved the world a lot. They reflect on the untold secrets of Buffy The Vampire as well as what the future might hold for Slayage in the 21st century. Also, revisiting the under-appreciated genius of Angel and the Buffy’s that never were in a candid and insightful look back at Sunnydale circa 1997. There may even be singing along the way, some surprises and special giveaways.

Sonicboombox Friday Afterparty

I went to the Sonicboombox party last year and it was definitely a great vibe in an awesome venue. You can also get a $25 combo pass for admission to both Sonicboombox parties on Friday and Saturday. They offer free admission offer if you buy a Sonicboombox hat/tee

NYCC’s best parties, five years running! NYCC badge NOT REQUIRED to attend.

NY Scifi & Fantasy NYCC AfterParty

This party hosted by the NY Scifi & Fantasy club is going for a chill vibe with happy hour/$1 off beers until 8pm. They’ll be having a raffle too, with $1 entry tickets.

NYCC is upon us again and NY Scifi & Fantasy is hosting their anual friday night event.

Welcome to NY Scifi & Fantasy’s 9th annual NYCC After party!

Since everyone enjoyed the chill atomosphere of last year’s party we decided to continue that trend. If you are are you tired of being on your feet and want to just hang with your fellow geeks/nerds this is the party for you.

Comic Con Pub Crawl With Brooklyn Defender

*The pub crawl itself is free, but you can get a $40 wristband to have open bar at all the pub crawl locations from 5-9pm.

Apparently, Brooklyn Defender is the official beer of NYCC and they’ll have food specials/souvenir glasses during the week too.

It’s time for the annual New York Comic Con & that means it’s time to celebrate with Brooklyn Defender IPA – the official beer of NYCC – and a pub crawl.

The pub crawl is free to attend. Your ticket gets you an open bar wristband good for all of the featured Brooklyn beers on draft and margaritas you can responsibly drink. If you don’t want the open bar, you can just show up at any stop on the crawl for great drink specials and swag giveaways.

Comic Booked NYCC After Party!

The party is in the basement of Hudson Station, a restaurant and sports bar. Not a lot of info I could find on this one–Comic Booked does comic news and geek coverage. 50 bucks gets you open bar for 3 hours.

Comic Booked will be at New York Comic Con this year. You will be at New York Comic Con this year. What better way to celebrate than to share a few drinks and talk about the industry we all know and love?

Join us for great drinks, raffle prizes, food, and conversations!

We have reserved the basement of Hudson Station for this special occasion. Wrist bands will be sold at the door for $50, which gets you unlimited beer and drinks for 3 hours and a raffle ticket for our once-in-a-lifetime prizes. Food will be available at additional cost.

Comic Con Vixens IV: NYCC!

If you like watching pretty girls dress up for you in geeky cosplay and performing then you’ll probably like this. Sounds like a mix of burlesque and vaudevillian acts. They’ll be having 8 performers for this show.

COMIC CON VIXENS is back to strut in the night of Gotham City, bringing you one show to rule them all in their fourth epic NYCC spectacular! Get ready for the ride of your life as we celebrate the sexier side of all things pop culture.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens – In Concert

Another fancy night out at the symphony, but with the new Star Wars being screened and a famous orchestra performing the live score. Plays on both Friday and Saturday.

30 years after the defeat of the Empire, a new threat has risen. The Resistance and unlikely heroes are the galaxy’s only hope at thwarting a new reign of evil. Don’t miss the World Premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, with the full forces of the New York Philharmonic performing John Williams’s Oscar-nominated score live to the complete, acclaimed film.

Stuff To Blow Your Mind

Get scienced up with some science podcasters talking about science stuff. Not so much a party party, more like a discussion party.

With another season of “Stranger Things” just around the corner, the Stuff to Blow Your Mind podcast explores the mind-rending science and pseudoscience behind government psychic research, sensory deprivation tanks, interdimensional travel and the real-life researcher lurking behind the fictional Dr. Brenner. Join hosts Robert, Joe and Christian as they take your scientific understanding of reality deep into the upsidedown.

Music Video Book Club

Comedian panel watches a bunch of music videos that might be amazing or terrible, then share their reactions. Sounds both musical and comedic.

Four guests. 10 music videos. No survivors. Music Video Book Club is a comedy/video event in which host Chris Cummins (Den of Geek, Sci-Fi Explosion) and his panel of comedians and music experts watch a number of music videos from the amazing to the awful and share their opinions. The catch? The panel will only know half of the videos they will see ahead of time in order to form detailed opinions on what they’ve seen. The remaining videos will come as a complete shock to the panel, and Cummins has plumbed the sometimes demented and depraved depths of videodom to highlight some of the craziest clips ever made. What results will be an evening of musical madness that is best described as the bastard offspring of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and TRL Live.

Stuff You Missed In History Class Live!: Rodolphe Topffer and the First Comic Book

Learn some comic related history (including the first comic book ever) in what looks to be a fact-filled spoken performance.

Long before there were comic-book superheroes, a Swiss teacher, journalist and art critic was drawing entertaining doodles for friends. As he developed his sketches into satirical stories told over the course of multiple captioned images, he inadvertently invented the first sequential art comics in the Western world. Join Stuff You Missed in History Class to find out how bad eyesight, Goethe and the culture of early 19th-century Europe all played a part in giving rise to a medium that today is a massive entertainment industry.

An Evening with Mark Hamill

It’s kind of shitty that you have to pay for what is basically a Mark Hamill panel, but oh well. If you get the $1500 tickets you get guaranteed autographs and pictures with Hamill himself.

New York Comic Con is proud to present a once in a lifetime event, “An Evening With Mark Hamill” on Saturday, October 7, 2017 at the Hammerstein Theater. Join us as Mark Hamill talks about his life, his loves, his (Joker) laughs, and about his experiences as two different iconic characters in pop culture history.

Super Smashed Bros VI: A New York Comic Con 2017 Afterparty

A Super Smash Bros themed rave? Interesting idea Hans. If you want to get all up in those LED lights and rave out/get physical, here’s the palce. The promoters say they’ll be announcing the venue the week of NYCC, but it has 7 rooms apparently so it should be pretty big. They’ll also have an arcade, live art, a Smash tournament, and a million pretty lights.

On October 7th, 2017 NYCRavers and Nocturnal Events present the 6th installment of our Annual NYC Comic Con afterparty : Super Smashed Bros! We’ve pulled out all the cucaws this year securing a 7 room dream venue just 10 minutes from NYCC via train and we’re theming every single room! With over 30 djs and 20 visual artists on board its sure to be the best smashed bros yet! Don’t sleep on this once in a ravetime experience!

RoosterTeethNY NYCC After Party

Rooster Teeth produces a bunch of podcasts, shows, vlogs, etc in case you were wondering what Rooster Teeth is. Because I definitely was. Nicely enough, the tickets come with a drink. The party itself is held upstairs in an Irish pub.

This year’s RTNY NYCC After Party will be held Saturday night at the Blarney Stone same as last year, which is walking distance to The Javitz Center and just 2 blocks away from Penn Station. Come hang out with the RT community, have a few drinks, order some food, and just mingle with some friends, old and new. We may even have some special guests.. *wink wink*

Fan Girls Night Out NYCC After Party

Despite the name, it’s an event for anyone to attend. Should be a general hoppin’ time with several activities planned for the night.

With New York Comic Con comes the best after-party there is – the fourth annual Fan Girls’ Night Out! We’re hosting all of Gotham’s geeks – women, men, transgender, gender fluid and non-binary – for a night of fun and firewater with:

Fugitive Toys & Funko NYCC Party

This is probably the most exclusive party (in the sense of requirements to attend) since it’s basically only open to people on the Funko Funatic forums. They did release a batch of tickets for public sale, but as of publication time it looks sold out. Maybe they’ll release some more? Attendees do get a goodie bag with their entry.

*$140 for nonmembers of the Funko Funatic forums

Greetings all,

Nerd Is The New Black (All-Star Comedy Showcase)

I don’t know if this comedy show will actually have anything to do with NYCC since it’s a regular running show, but it has the word ‘nerd’ in the title so sure, why not?
